gmx is very popular among tor users because you can create an account with no strings attached. No other emails are needed, no other phone numbers are needed, and signup takes only a few webpage loads (important when dealing with latencies of up to 45 seconds).

This of course doesn't mean that Satoshi is a tor user, but a gmx account is consistent with typical tor behavior.



Last time I tried to create a gmx account under Tor, it told me I could not do it because my IP address was blacklisted.


What's your point? The fact that one exit node was blacklisted does not disprove anything.


Tor exit-node filtering is soooo common nowadays it practically makes Tor useless.
